2007 Subaru Forester 2.5 X 4dr Wagon AWD (2.5L 4cyl 4A)
I bought this car used, when it was 18 months old. It has met or exceeded all of my expectations. It's fun to drive, comfortable on long trips, no problems at all. The driver controls are well laid out, the amenities are convenient, the engine power of my base model is more than adequate. The storage space is great! It's very fun to drive and makes me happy on a daily basis.
The excellent visibility in all directions; the secure handling on snow and ice; top ratings in crash tests.
The engine air filter cover is very hard to remove, and the automatic transmission fluid dip stick is hard to reach.
